Rear Booster Seats

Booster seats are child car seats designed to elevate children so that the vehicle's seat belt fits them correctly. They ensure safety during travel by positioning the seat belt across the child's lap and shoulder. Types include backless and high-back boosters, each suited for different vehicle types and child heights.

Booster seats enhance safety by ensuring the seat belt fits a child properly, reducing injury risk in accidents. Proper fit includes the lap belt lying snugly across the upper thighs and the shoulder belt crossing the chest. Always check compatibility with your car's seat belts.

Your child can transition to a booster seat when they outgrow their forward-facing car seat, usually around 4 years old or 18 kg (40 lbs). Ensure they can sit properly without slouching and that their ears align with the top of the vehicle's seat back or headrest.

High-back booster seats are recommended for added side-impact protection and support. They provide head and neck support, making them ideal for cars without headrests. They also guide the shoulder belt correctly over the child's body, enhancing overall safety during travel.

You can use a backless booster if your car has adequate headrests and your child is tall enough for proper belt fit. Backless models are portable and convenient but lack side-impact protection compared to high-back boosters. Always prioritize your child's comfort and safety needs.
